Charged with Kidnapping in Chicago? Vadim Glozman Explains the Options
Law enforcement officers, prosecuting attorneys, and judges usually take a very tough stance when it comes to enforcing kidnapping law. A convicted kidnapper can face penalties as extreme as life in prison.
Kidnapping is defined as the forceful or coercive abduction of one individual by another individual and the transportation of that abducted party, against his or her will, from one area to another. Each of these elements must generally be present in order to warrant a conviction, however there are many cases where individuals who merely held another against their will, absent the element of transportation, have been charged and convicted of kidnapping.
Kidnapping charges are easily compounded with other charges due to the nature of the crime as many kidnapping cases also involve robbery, sexual abuse, rape, assault, battery, or in some of the worst cases even murder. If you have been charged with the crime of kidnapping then you could face extremely harsh penalties for conviction of this crime.
